I know this is a lame question, but I seem unable to find the proper PHP syntax to complete this challenge.

I did look at the source at the secure area, and entered my request at the URL box on the secure area and not the password box.

the syntax is ?sql_query SELECT*FROM family_db.

is it the correct syntax? if it isn't, can someone at least tell me what did i do wrong?

EDIT: wow, I have no idea what I thinking…"?sql_query=" is right, I'm retarded..must've been really tired or something when I wrote that :P

i've read some articles on php/sql injection but i still can't figure it out.

You should edit your post coz it might spoil this challenge. You almost right.

When I did it, I didn't use a GET var. Also, what you have, fuser, is actually very close… You're just missing a few key things.

Yeah, I just did it… You are VERY close a few and you will be good. And @Skunkfoot: it is not an action, it is a variable. The GET would be in the PHP not the URL SQL Injection.

If you are referring to the URL then it is because variables are passed by GET method. However sometimes GET is more useful then POST but it also provides security issue. This is merely show of probable exploits.

Look at the source in the secure area after the login thing. you should notice ?s**_q**r*= . Replace it where you think it should go and use your injections

I got the ?sl_qe*y , but I don't know where to put it and I'm getting desperate:(

Is it supposed to go to the URL?

Thx man, finally got it…..

BTW I don't think a real website will give us important variable such as the ?sl_qe*y thing??

So how do we does it in a real web?

You plan, and test, until you find the appropriate attack.
